A. Where boundaries are indicated as approximately following lot lines or the right-of-way lines of highways, streets, or alleys, such lines shall be construed to be the boundaries.
B. In the case of unsubdivided property where a zone boundary divides a lot, the location of such boundaries, unless said boundary is indicated by dimensions or legal description, shall be determined by use of the scale appearing on the Zoning Map.
C. Where a public highway, street, or alley, or any portion thereof, is officially vacated or abandoned, the area comprising such vacated highway, street or alley shall acquire the zone classification of the property to which it reverts.
D. Areas in railroad rights-of-way, other than those clearly zoned on the Zoning Map, shall be deemed to be in the R-3 (Residential) zone and shall be permitted to be used solely for the purpose of accommodating tracks, signals, other operative devices, and the movement of rolling stock.
